Use printDocument Control.

Add the 'Print Document' and 'Print Dialog' control to the form. Then for the PrintPage event handler of the PrintDcoument control you can use something like this:

Font f = new Font("Arial",14,FontStyle.Regular);
            Brush b = Brushes.Black;
            for (int i = 0; i < dataGridView1.Rows.Count; i++)
                for (int j = 0; j < dataGridView1.Columns.Count; j++)
                {
                    e.Graphics.DrawString(dataGridView1(i,j) + "    ", f, b, j*5, i*5);
                }

Create another button, name it Print or whatever you like. On the Click event of that button, call the use the PrintDialog control and assign this print document object to that print dialog.
